DHS Released More Than 100,000 Illegal Immigrants at the Border in April; Biden Releases 118K Border Crossers into U.S. in April, Exceeding Population of His Hometown

DHS released more than 100,000 illegal immigrants at the border in April:

Homeland Security released more than 100,000 illegal immigrants caught at the border in April, according to new numbers the department provided to a federal judge Monday.

Customs and Border Protection, the agency that oversees U.S. boundaries, reported nabbing more than 230,000 border jumpers, marking the highest level of illegal activity yet under President Biden.

Experts said that’s the highest rate in history.

About half of those were quickly released, according to the data provided to the court.

About 20,000 others were turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the deportation agency, but just 263 of those were actually deported in April, the government said.

Nearly 8,000 more were released into communities, while the rest were still being held at the end of the month.

America First Legal, a conservative group staffed with senior officials from the administration of former President Trump, said when all the border releases are combined dating back to Mr. Biden’s early days in office, nearly 1 million migrants have now been caught and released into the country. —>READ MORE HERE

Biden Releases 118K Border Crossers into U.S. in April, Exceeding Population of His Hometown:

President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released nearly 118,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities in the month of April, federal data shows.

New court filings by Biden’s DHS reveal that the agency released a foreign population larger than the resident population of Biden’s hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania. Scranton has a population of less than 77,000 residents.

The filings note:

For the month of April 2022, DHS reported that the total number of applicants for admission under Section 1225 released into the United States, paroled or otherwise, was 117,989, a figure reflecting CBP’s 110,207 total releases across all categories for the month of April 2022 … combined with ICE’s 7,782 total releases of noncitizens transferred to it from CBP following their application or encounter at the southwest border for the month of April 2022. [Emphasis added]

The figure comes after Biden’s DHS released more than 80,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the United States interior in March.

Neither of these figures include the hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens who successfully entered the U.S., undetected by Border Patrol, or the tens of thousands of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs) the federal government resettles across various American communities every month. —>READ MORE HERE
